✦ AI summary

Rakuen is an emotionally powerful indie game that players praise for its poignant storytelling, beautiful soundtrack, and thoughtful exploration of themes like illness, hope, and connection between reality and surrealism. While the core experience resonates deeply with players, some note that the control scheme and quest mechanics involving backtracking can feel cumbersome, though these issues don't significantly diminish the overall impact. Players consistently recommend it as a meaningful experience worth playing.

All the emotions i felt while playing this game, 10/10 that i wish there's more games like this as a huge fan of reading and loving explorations of real life meets surrealist dreams of what we feel... [spoiler] especially when we feel hopelessness and fatigue from illnesses [/spoiler]

I knew very little going into this game apart from the description and it absolutely took me for a ride. Very, very well done. This soundtrack is going to be playing in my head for quite some time.

I watched a playthrough of this game wen it first came out and the first thing I did when I got a PC was buy and download the game. I only played through it the past few days though. Why? because I needed to have the most authentic reaction to my first playthrough as the game left that much of an impact on me when I first say it so I 10/10 recommend the game. The controls were a bit buggy and it was weird using the arrow keys instead of wasd and the enter key for things but I got used to it a lot faster than I thought I would. But even with that I 100% say anyone should play the game <3

Phenominal story and music only problem is the mechanics with the backtracking questlines. Other from that its very enjoyable and cute.

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
